OPERATION
To fill the water tank:
Pull open the water tank drawer (it does not come all the way out) and fill with
clean cold water until the water level reaches level 8 on the scale. Then close the
drawer.
For extra cooling, fill the cooling packs with water (leave some space for
expansion as the water freezes) and freeze in a deep-freeze or the freezer
compartment of a refrigerator. When frozen, place the cooling packs in the water
tank.
When the cooling packs have thawed out, remove them from the tank and
refreeze them.
